Christina Aguilera is featured in some new ads for Stephen Webster jewelry. The ads are gorgeous! She’s been friends with the jeweler for years and had a great time working with him. Apparently she was already four months pregnant by the time they shot the photos but with the angles, it doesn’t show.
Christina Aguilera may be busy with a new baby, but her jeweler friend Stephen Webster has been busy too, creating a new jewelry line inspired by the singer. The collection will feature sterling silver pieces with a variety of gemstones. In April we’ll get to see the ad campaign with Christina herself.
Blake Lively was looking even prettier than her character on Gossip Girl usually does when she attended Chanel’s Nuits de Diamants in New York City Wednesday night. Chanel’s jewelry division held the event to honor the US debut of 20 pieces from Chanel and the Vendome Collection.
I love this idea - a charity ring that costs so little yet does so much. With each Allumonde charity ring, 19% is donated to the charity of your choice, and 2% to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization and wearing the ring shows your commitment toward helping others.
The Allumonde ring has been worn by Charlie Sheen, Forest Whittaker and others, each choosing their favorite cause. Since its inception in 2006, DESIGN 21 has generated over $500,000.00 in sales, proving that a little ring goes a long way.
With just one ring you can:
Now, the rings are available in even more affordable versions. The new acrylic version starts at just $25.00 for a set of 4 colors, so everyone can wear their favorite cause. The Allumonde charity ring is available in acrylic in children’s and adult sizes, stainless steel, black titanium-coated stainless steel, gold titanium-coated stainless steel, sterling silver and 18k gold.

Halle Berry is absolutely beautiful in the new holiday ads for ’A Diamond Is Forever’ campaign. I don’t know if the campaign was shot pre-pregnancy or a few months ago, but it doesn’t matter because Halle is one of the most beautiful women in the world. I love the necklace in the second pic below - what a dazzler!

Van Cleef & Arpels is celebrating the 40th anniversary of the ballet that was inspired by their Fifth Avenue window:
“Jewels” is the name of a ballet, choreographed by George Balanchine, that celebrates emeralds, rubies and diamonds with the music of Fauré, Stravinsky and Tchaikovsky. It was first shown in New York in 1967, making this a 40th anniversary for both the production and for Van Cleef & Arpels, because Balanchine was originally inspired by the Fifth Avenue windows of the French jewelry house to create a ballet around the three stones.
The revived performance, presented in its entirety at Covent Garden for the first time, encouraged Van Cleef to create Ballet Précieux - the new dance collection. The 80 jewels of Ballet Précieux, hot from the Paris workrooms, were divided into Balanchine’s emerald, ruby and diamond categories. Pieces of creativity and craftsmanship included earrings where two pear-shaped, tiger-eye emeralds dangled below diamond “tutus”; and a brooch of a dancer stretching her arms across a skirt to her miniature ballet shoes - even the dancing of Isadora Duncan was caught in outstretched diamond wings.
Van Cleef & Arpels’s Pulcinella ballerina clip shown above, os crafted in white gold and is set with pink, gray and white diamonds; the face is formed out of a rose-cut diamond.
